I'd agree with a system that only allows the creator to send a message to the winner once a giveaway has ended, but not an open free for all private message system. At least that way, you have instant on site proof that you contacted the winner in the event of a dispute.
If people want to contact friends, use Steam or similar.

Agreed. It'd prevent a lot of things : winners not notified they win because mail went to spam, or because they won't connect on Steam (this said, why would one enter a steam giveaway in this case ?), winners SAYING they didn't receive when the key is now used (miracles someone ?)... That's a major reason why I don't sent keys through mail btw, at least a steam chat is easy to screenshot... unless we have a better way to prove what we have to.

Well, maybe the winner should be able to contact the creator too. But MAYBE.

If winners don't reply to emails, what makes you think they'll reply to PMs? They'll ignore them altogether and still mark the Creator as a fraud and mark their gifts as not received.

You know, I'm the kind of guy that's very "sincere" about what he thinks, I rarely hold my opinion IRL so It's only natural that on the internet I do it even less, usually I say anything I want and I don't necessary use the "kindest words" for it, obviously on the internet that kind of personality gets a lot of "attention" (or I should say: butthurt) so one thing that defenitely I don't need here it's constant PMs of "FuK U gUy CaLL of Dutyz tHe Bezt!!!!! U dont knoW Shiet!!!!!" and "I goNNA findU and GoNNA Kick yo ASS"
